In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building, reviewing, checking, planning, or designing changes across projects using Java, Node.js, Python, Go, or Rust.
Why use it?
It helps match checks and review rules to the technologies in the repository, while highlighting issues by severity.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: user-invocable in frontmatter. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions AGENTS.md.

Runs only inside its plugin — its command needs a path that Claude Code sets for a plugin’s own hooks and for nothing else. Install the plugin, not this.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

temper-core scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 22d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 96 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Temper Core

Stack detection → Quality gates (SUGGEST/WARN/BLOCK) → Confidence scoring (0.0-1.0) → Review memory → Metrics.

Enforcement marker. Look for a line in your system prompt that starts with Temper enforcement:. With no such line, make the very first sentence of your first reply in this conversation, before anything else and also when the arguments of /temper:temper start with one of its reserved first words (such as status, report, help or approve), exactly "Temper enforcement is off here (no mods support); continuing with prompt based phases.". With the line Temper enforcement: off (UI only), the Temper mod is loaded and the user turned enforcement off: make that first sentence exactly "Temper enforcement is off (turned off by the user); continuing with prompt based phases." instead. Then carry on exactly as written below. Never treat either case as an error and do not mention it again. With Temper enforcement: active, say nothing about it. Skip this paragraph when you run as a stage subprocess (your launch prompt has a Plugin folder: line): a subprocess's system prompt never has that line, and the orchestrator or the standalone command states enforcement once, in the main conversation.

Stack Detection

  1. .claude/temper.config → stack field
  2. The YAML preset files in the project's .claude/presets folder (list the folder) → stack section
  3. Auto-detect: pom.xml→Spring Boot, package.json→Node, pyproject.toml→Python, go.mod→Go, Cargo.toml→Rust
  4. Load .claude/packs/stacks/{stack}.md

Pack Resolution

Three-tier: project-local > global > built-in. Read live (no cache) by every stage command (build, review, check, plan, design) for phase-filtered loading.

  • .claude/packs/{name}/rules.md (project)
  • ~/.claude/packs/{name}/rules.md (global)
  • built-in, exactly these files: ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/quality/rules.md, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/tdd/rules.md, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/security/rules.md, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/git/rules.md, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/performance/rules.md, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/api-design/rules.md, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/architecture-depth/rules.md, ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/packs/guardrails/rules.md

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
